Descripción
Sumario:Blockchains have many uses beyond cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. These shared, distributed ledgers also enable businesses to record transactions between parties in an efficient, verifiable, and permanent manner—unlike traditional methods. Using a blockchain in business can still pose numerous challenges, however. This ebook explains how developers can establish a blockchain network to handle business-to-business transactions while maintaining privacy and confidentiality. Members of IBM’s global blockchain team show you how to start using these open, distributed ledgers to add value to your business networks. Unlike simple ledgers and contracts, blockchains offer irrefutable proof that all parties involved in a transaction agree to the details—creating a source of truth that today’s conventional business-to-business systems lack. You’ll learn: How blockchains for business provide a shared, distributed ledger with smart contracts How to identify and implement the scenarios for which blockchain is most suited What developers need to know about enterprise blockchain The important design and architectural considerations when building a blockchain-based platform How chaincode encapsulates business logic to define assets and the terms of transactions How to implement a blockchain application based on a commercial paper case study What the future holds for blockchain
